ACORDING TO THE JUDGEMENT OF THE ORITRICE MECANICE D'ANLES CARDNALE!
To write an expression that represents how much money you will make each day when selling cupcakes, we need to figure out which quantities should be represented with a variable.
The quantity that should be represented with a variable is the number of cupcakes sold. Let's say this variable is "x".
Now, let's think about the other quantities in the problem:
1. The cost of each cupcake sold: This is a fixed cost of $2 per cupcake. Since it is a fixed value, it does not need to be represented with a variable.
2. The number of cupcakes you bought: This is given as 20 cupcakes. Since this is a fixed value, it also does not need to be represented with a variable.
3. The amount of money you spent on the cupcakes: This is given as $15. Again, since this is a fixed value, it does not need to be represented with a variable.
By analyzing the problem, we can conclude that the number of cupcakes sold should be represented with a variable. Thus, the expression that represents how much money you will make each day when selling cupcakes is:
Total money made = x (number of cupcakes sold) * $2 (price per cupcake)
Note: The variable x represents the number of cupcakes sold, and we're assuming that all cupcakes are sold each day.
